Get hold of your fan and give it a wiggle. Usually if the fan gets the wires either it's from the fan wiggling or the harness got loose. I know you just recently replaced your water pump but it still may be a problem.

To be honest, I didn't even check it. I found the wires and started taking off. I know it was snug, busted knuckles getting it to break lose.
